Plastic Free July is a world-wide campaign and movement created to collectively cut down on single-use plastics which began in 2011 engaging over 100 million participants. This month creates alternate habits which could last a life time. The aim of this month is to help solve plastic pollution, which will help our planet have cleaner streets, oceans and communities.
Small changes to your daily life can make a huge difference to society, such as choosing a reusable water bottle over a plastic bottle. Each year billions of tonnes of plastic pollute our oceans and harm our wildlife. Plastic Free July helps encourage individuals to start living a more sustainable lifestyle and consider what products we are using.
Every action you take big or small serves a purpose and makes a difference.
How to get started:
- Commit to reducing or eliminating single-use plastics for the month of a July.
- Begin with easy swaps such as using a reusable coffee cup everyday.
- Spread the word to inspire others whether it's family or friends.
- Organise events such as local clean-up's
